The man looked up at her, staring for long seconds. Finally, he nodded. She didn’t know if he would, or if he’d be able to hide it, but if he did inform Coil, it would at least be an excuse to get rid of him and the others.
…fair enough.
Also worth noting: It’s possible for the guy to inform Coil without knowing it himself. Without it actually happening.
She looked down at the wolf pup, who was still struggling to bite at her fingers. She let it go, waited until it tried to attack her again, and pushed it down onto its side once more.
D’aw.
“Little bastard,” she smiled.
D’aww.
Almost without thinking about it, she used her power. Just the smallest amount. She felt almost none of the vibrations or shudder she experienced as a visceral feedback on her power with the other dogs. It was only when she saw his skin splitting that she realized it was actually working.
Uh. You sure you wanna do this? This puppy isn’t exactly trained, by the looks of it.
Also, the difference between dogs and wolves in the feedback… is the power actually designed to work primarily on wolves, and just works on dogs because they’re the same species but domesticated? And the domestication and/or genetic differences from breeding causes feedback?
Faster, quicker, with so little of the temporary exhaustion she so often experienced on her end.
Huh. Yeah, it really does sound like this is what her power is really effective on.
The Dandelions probably can’t tell the difference between a wolf and a dog.
